Default No Power!!!!

Ok so i just bought a 77 D150 Custom that isnt getting any power. I put the key in and turn it and there is nothing. Not even a buzzer when the door is open. I replaced the starter, battery and alternator just to make sure that it wasnt anything with that. I juss cant figure this crap out. If you have any idea let me know. Thanks

Fusable link is a short chunk of wire that acts like a fuse - over load it or short it out and it's designed to burn up to kill the power. There should be one in the wiring somewhere between the battery and the mess of wires. If you can, take a high-res picture of that side of the engine compartment and post it up so we can see what's going on.
